we have challenged the forest service to begin incorporating practical applications for mitigation and adaptation strategies for our management -- planning and management system work. the next steps require developing a roadmap. we want to provide practical advice to our farmers and ranchers, in ways in which they can reduce risk through the use of their property. we want to provide better support materials, so that they can create techniques and technologies that will allow them to mitigate the impact. we saw this with the drought. it is amazing. despite the drought, we still had a relatively large corn crop, even the extent and severity of the drought last year. the reason is the technology and the techniques our farmers used. we need to better support climate change research. we need to make sure we have resources going into this research, so we can provide you with the information that allows you to manage this risk. we need to improve our outreach and extension, so the outreach we have, and our ability to provide help and assistance, we will be able to do this by organizing the ef

[cheers and applause] citizens from all around the country went toe-to-toe with florida, kentucky, new the industry inmexico. together we have built a coalition of hundreds of organizations with thousands of people, and we are winning. we have defeated coal plants in florida, shutting down 230 of the plants on the south side of the chicago. we shut down the coal plant just across the river on the potomac. i am standing here today saying that together, as a movement, we have defeated and we have shut down more than 300 proposed and existing coal fired power plants across the country. [cheers and applause] so, remember that the next time that someone tells you that climate change is inevitable. remember that the next time someone tells you that our movement is not strong and we are not growing. what is happening right now -- what is happening is the fossil fuel barons, their lawyers and spin doctors, their lobbyists are losing their grip on the psyche of t

a long opinion was prepared by members of the office of legal counsel analyzing all the applicable laws under both international law and under the u.s. constitution and under federal statutes, including the federal murder statute. we have seen only the summary. it is up to the president whether he wants to make that public or not in longform or short firm. originally, the ministration was being limited on what they would provide. frankly, in response to pressure from the right and left, they have been trickling out more information. this white paper that came out provides more information that came out a couple of days ago. as someone who has served in national security capacities, i am confident that the obama administration is taking this all very seriously. this is not rogue power. we are not out killing lots of americans. it seems apparent that the government is only intentionally targeted probably one american who was a senior operational leader. there may have been two others who were unintentionally killed. i think the administration needs to be as open as they can about it. that

caller: i had a question about talkingof the about limiting magazines, would that be applicable to the government? if 10 rounds is good for the average american citizen, shouldn't it be good enough for the government? guest: it is a very good point. yes, if the government thinks 10 rounds is plenty a person needs to defend themselves, it should be plenty for a law enforcement. one company said it would no longer sell firearms for that exact reason. if you think that is all you need, we are not giving them to law enforcement anyway. this ten round thing is so arbitrary. the average person has four rounds go off. it is not based on anything scientifically. that is why new york came up with seven recently. it also makes no sense, we have criminals on the street. all you have to do is change the magazine. they will not be switching out 13-round magazines for 10-round ones. obviously. but even if they change the magazine, i can change a magazine in two seconds. it only takes the press of a button and put the new one and. it does not change how many rounds you will get off. host: family, did
